Hello,

I had a worksheet (myWorksheet) in which the user entered data - number of
vehicles.
Empty cell means there is no vehicles.

Now I get my data from different excel workbook (dataWorksheet).

I tried to use this in my worksheet cells:
=if (dataWorksheet cell value = "" , "", dataWorksheet cell value)

My problem is that in some calculations in other worksheets
I get #value or other error messages (in average calculations).

How can I set empty cell in my worksheet ?


Thank you
David Cohen
 
A formula must always have some value and the "" your formulas return is
technically a null string. You cannot make a formula return "nothing". So
you must adjust your statistical formulas to account for this (if possible)
or bring your data together by copy/pasting rather than by formula.
